Here's a great article that came out yesterday in the New York Times. It's titled Making Designs out of Rubbish by Penelope Green. It talks about my work with the uber-awesome-upcycling company TerraCycle and about our upcycled office renovations that I put together with the rest of the design crew.

If you're interested in having your own office space upcycled, let me know!

GoGo squeeZ and TerraCycle will be taking part in this year’s Summer Streets event in New York City and we'll be there showing people how to upcycled items from their packaging material!

Summer Streets was set up in the city as a way to let people walk, run, bike, rollerblade and just enjoy the fresh air without being bothered by the noise and pollutants of cars. The festivities will run during three consecutive Saturdays, August 6, 13, 20 from 7am to 1pm. Our location is at Foley Square in NYC on the corner of Lafayette Street and Duane Street.

Check out the GoGo squeeZ tents where you’ll find samples of the GoGo squeeZ product and some fun activities. You will be able to take part in a TerraCycle upcycling event, where you can make wallets and bows out of GoGo squeeZ pouches! Come to the event and upcycle with us!
